¹در همان روزی که موسی برافراشتن خیمۀ حضور خداوند را تمام کرد و تمام اثاثیه و لوازم آن را همراه با قربانگاه و ظروف آن مسح و تقدیس نمود،

¹And it came to pass on the day that Moses had fully set up the tabernacle, and had anointed it, and sanctified it, and all the instruments thereof, both the altar and all the vessels thereof, and had anointed them, and sanctified them;

²رهبران قوم اسرائیل، یعنی مو سفیدان قبایل که مسئول سرشماری بودند،

²That the princes of Israel, heads of the house of their fathers, who were the princes of the tribes, and were over them that were numbered, offered:

³هدایای خود را که عبارت بودند از شش عراده - یک عراده از طرف دو رهبر - و دوازده گاو که هر عراده را دو گاو کش می کردند در پیشروی خیمه بحضور خداوند تقدیم کردند.

³And they brought their offering before the LORD, six covered wagons, and twelve oxen; a wagon for two of the princes, and for each one an ox: and they brought them before the tabernacle.

⁴خداوند به موسی فرمود: «هدایای شان را قبول کن و آن ها را به لاویان بده تا در وظایف خود از آن ها استفاده کنند.»

⁴And the LORD spake unto Moses, saying,

⁵پس موسی عراده ها و گاوها را برای لاویان برد.

⁵Take it of them, that they may be to do the service of the tabernacle of the congregation; and thou shalt give them unto the Levites, to every man according to his service.

⁶دو عراده و چهار گاو را به خانوادۀ جرشون داد.

⁶And Moses took the wagons and the oxen, and gave them unto the Levites.

⁷چهار عراده و هشت گاو را در اختیار خانوادۀ مراری که زیر نظر ایتامار، پسر هارون خدمت می کردند، گذاشت تا در وظایف خود از آن ها کار بگیرند.

⁷Two wagons and four oxen he gave unto the sons of Gershon, according to their service:

⁸اما به خانوادۀ قهات عراده یا گاوی داده نشد، زیرا آن ها مسئول مراقبت اشیای مقدس بودند و آن ها را بر دوش خود حمل می کردند.

⁸And four wagons and eight oxen he gave unto the sons of Merari, according unto their service, under the hand of Ithamar the son of Aaron the priest.

⁹در همان روز، رهبران قوم هدایائی برای تقدیس قربانگاه هم آوردند. وقتیکه می خواستند هدایا را در پیشروی قربانگاه تقدیم کنند،

⁹But unto the sons of Kohath he gave none: because the service of the sanctuary belonging unto them was that they should bear upon their shoulders.

¹⁰خداوند به موسی فرمود: «هر روز یکی از رهبران، هدیۀ خود را برای تقدیس قربانگاه تقدیم کنند.»

¹⁰And the princes offered for dedicating of the altar in the day that it was anointed, even the princes offered their offering before the altar.

¹¹رهبران هدیه های خود را به این ترتیب آوردند. روز اول، نحشون، پسر عمیناداب، از قبیلۀ یهودا؛ روز دوم، نتنائیل، پسر صوغر، از قبیلۀ ایسَسکار؛ روز سوم اِلیاب، پسر حیلون، از قبیله زبولون؛ روز چهارم، اَلیصور، پسر شَدَینور، از قبیلۀ رؤبین؛ روز پنجم، شلومی ئیل، پسر صوریشدای، از قبیلۀ شمعون؛ روز ششم، اَلیاساف، پسر دعویل، از قبیلۀ جاد؛ روز هفتم، الیشمع، پسر عمیهود، از قبیلۀ افرایم؛ روز هشتم، جَملی ئیل، پسر فَدَهسور، از قبیلۀ مَنَسّی؛ روز نهم، اَبیدان، پسر جِدعونی، از قبیلۀ بنیامین؛ روز دهم، اَخیعَزَر، پسر عمیشدای، از قبیلۀ دان؛ روز یازدهم، فَجعیئیل، پسر عُکران، از قبیلۀ اَشیر؛ روز دوازدهم، اَخیرَع، پسر عینان، از قبیلۀ نفتالی. هدیه های هر یک از رهبران مشابه یکدیگر بودند و آن ها این اشیا را تقدیم کردند: یک پطنوس نقره ای به وزن یک و نیم کیلوگرام، یک کاسۀ نقره ای به وزن هشتصد گرام، هردو ظرف پُر از آرد اعلی مخلوط با روغن برای هدیۀ آردی بودند. یک ظرف طلائی به وزن یکصد و ده گرام پُر از مواد خوشبوئی، یک نرگاو جوان، یک قوچ و یک برۀ نر یکساله برای قربانی سوختنی؛ یک بز نر برای قربانی گناه؛ دو نرگاو، پنج قوچ، پنج بز نر و پنج برۀ نر یکساله برای قربانی سلامتی.

¹¹And the LORD said unto Moses, They shall offer their offering, each prince on his day, for the dedicating of the altar.

¹²بنابرین در روزی که قربانگاه مسح شد، آنرا بوسیلۀ هدایای که رهبران قبایل آورده بودند تبرک کردند. این هدایا عبارت بودند از: دوازده عدد پطنوس نقره ای، هر کدام به وزن یک و نیم کیلوگرام؛ دوازده عدد کاسۀ نقره ای، هر کدام به وزن هشتصد گرام (وزن تمام ظروف نقره ای در حدود بیست و هفت کیلو و ششصد گرام بود)؛ دوازده عدد ظرف طلائی، هرکدام به وزن یکصد و ده گرام، وزن مجموعی آن ها یک کیلو و سیصد و بیست گرام؛ دوازده نرگاو، دوازده قوچ، دوازده بز نر یکساله (با هدیه های آردی آن ها) برای قربانی سوختنی؛ دوازده بز نر برای قربانی گناه؛ بیست و چهار نرگاو جوان، شصت قوچ، شصت بز نر و شصت برۀ نر یکساله برای قربانی سلامتی.وقتیکه موسی به خیمۀ حضور خداوند داخل شد تا با خداوند سخن گوید، از بالای تخت رحمت که بر صندوق پیمان قرار داشت، یعنی از بین دو مجسمۀ فرشته آواز خداوند را شنید که با او حرف می زد.
